Gatekeepers or Intermediaries? The Role of Clinicians in Commercial Genomic Testing

26 Sept 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Many commentators on "direct-to-consumer" genetic risk information have raised concerns that giving results to individuals with insufficient knowledge and training in genomics may harm consumers, the health care system, and society. In response, several commercial laboratories offering genomic risk profiling have shifted to more traditional "direct-to-provider" (DTP) marketing strategies,...
